Giving myself credit.

Sometimes I feel like I am my worse enemy, although I do know that if any credit credit issued to me is well deserved. As I do spend a great deal of time and effort helping and making others lives easier. I do not give myself any credit, as when I do things I do not look at it as if I have done something great. I suppose I feel this way because I am always putting others needs before mine. If ever anyone says I have done something great it does bring a smile to me.

I don't know what that means, good enough for myself. The very fact that you are alive means you are good enough, we are all on life's road to learn lessons and grow, many of those lessons are not easy to learn so we may have to repeat them again and again. But the fact that we have life means we are good enough to be here. Blessings

I get credit for my writing and it really surprises me. I don't think I am that good and yet others who read my work think I am very good. I guess I don't give myself enough credit. I could give myself more credit. My granddaughter, who is no eighteen, married and has a baby says I was a good mom to her and I like that and it helps because I always thought she felt I was mean.

Yes, I do give myself credit for things that I know how to do. I wasn't always that way but I am like you and realized that I do know things. It makes me feel good to say, yes i know how to do that. I don't always agree with people and how they feel about things about me or in my life. We all look at ourselves in a different way than other people do.

Most of the time I do not give myself credit for all that I do. This is true both in my professional and my home life. I should give myself more credit, and more lee way, but I am hard on myself and i think that makes me the best I can be. I do not see me being a good mom as something that I should be rewarded or congratulated on. It is my job and responsibility.

I do give myself credit when i did something very nice. I simply congatulate myself, as if talking to myself. But really, when somebody gives me a credit for something , i feel ashamed and simply say " i just did what i had to do " , but i do agree with the person inside of me.

I know the feeling well. I often would think that I didn't do enough, but when I would describe my life at times, people couldn't believe that I was doing so much and could never figure out how I did it. I never give myself enough credit for what I do, but I try to not get a big head about the tings I do either because I think that is worse than anything else I could do.

I think that we are our hardest critics sometimes. There are times when I have been praised and in the back of my mind..I thought that I could've done better.

I have not always been a believer of my self, and always had lived with low self esteem. However, as I matured, and inspired by other people, I have come to realize that I since I give credit to people where credit is due, then I should do that to "me", too. So, I've changed how I think and now I'm happier than I was before.

I do most things with confident. But I am always ready to accept different ideas. Because I know I am not a genius. There could something I haven't considered in my work and others may have reasonable suggestions. So, although sometimes I don't really accept other's idea, I thank all the others for their suggestion and ideas.

When someone compliment me I always tell them I suck why do you bother. But to be honest I am happy for every compliment. I however do not want to get over my head so I deny it.
